STATE PURCHASES FAVOUR DOMINION
POLICY OF BOARD Press Association. WELLINGTON, To-day. The Hon. K. S. Williams, chairman of the Stores Control Board, said today that it was the policy of the board to purchase stores manufactured in New Zealand whenever such could be obtained of a suitable quality for State requirements. When this condition was fulfilled a generous preference was allowed to Dominion manufacturers who were in competition with overseas manufacturers. It was also the policy of the board to keep as closely as possible in touch with New Zealand manufacturers, and from time to time representatives of the board conferred with representatives of the manufacturers at the various centres. Stores were continually being analysed and tested and if found to be unsuitable the manufacturer was advised of the reasons.
